Year 3 Homework

✏️ Our homework in Year 3 will consist of reading, Mini Maths, English, RE & spellings. This will be sent to you via our Class Dojo story on a Friday and will be due in the following Thursday. Homework based on the foundation subjects may be set in addition. This will not be weekly and may be set as projects across the year.

📕  Each child will receive a reading book which is appropriate for their reading level. Children are expected to read every day and progress/pages read must be recorded in their reading diaries which must be signed by an adult each time they read.  Please support your child with their reading by asking them questions about the text.  Your child needs to bring their reading book and diary to school daily as they will be given opportunities throughout the week to read both this book and a variety of texts.

☑️ On a Friday, the mini maths assignments will be set for the entire week; this allows flexibility for students to complete a day's homework in advance, especially if they have after-school commitments. However, we would encourage children to complete it daily if possible, as research shows that 'little and often' is the most effective. We expect students to bring their homework books in every day. This will be sent out from this coming Friday. 

📖 The children will be using an online platform called Century Tech for their English homework; more details regarding this will follow in the coming weeks. Spellings will also be sent home on a fortnightly basis. This follows the Read Write Inc. Spelling programme we follow in KS2, which is taught over a two week cycle. The spellings set on a Friday should be practised ready for a spelling test the following Friday.
